CPU and GPU Roles

The measured frame rates across resolutions reveal a clear pattern: the GPU becomes the dominant factor as resolution increases, while the CPU's role remains relatively constant. At 1920x1080, the system produces 159 FPS on Low settings, which is the highest recorded frame rate in the entire dataset. This suggests that at 1080p, the CPU has enough headroom to feed the GPU effectively, and the performance ceiling is dictated by the graphics card's output.

Moving to 2560x1440, the Low preset drops to 117 FPS, a reduction of 42 FPS compared to 1080p. This 26% decrease aligns with the increased pixel count, indicating the GPU is now doing more work per frame. The Medium preset at 1440p averages 83 FPS versus 113 FPS at 1080p, a 30 FPS drop. High settings at 1440p average 72 FPS versus 99 FPS at 1080p, a 27 FPS reduction. These consistent drops point to the GPU being the limiting factor as resolution climbs.

At 3840x2160, the scaling becomes even more pronounced. Low settings at 4K average 75 FPS, which is 84 FPS lower than the same preset at 1080p. Medium at 4K drops to 53 FPS, High falls to 47 FPS, and Ultra bottoms out at 35 FPS. The gap between 1440p and 4K is larger than the gap between 1080p and 1440p, which confirms that the RTX 2060 SUPER is the component determining performance at higher resolutions.

The CPU's influence is most visible at 1080p where frame rates exceed 150 FPS on Low. At this level, the Ryzen 5 4600G's 6 cores and 12 threads, with a boost clock of 4.20 GHz, are sufficient to keep up with the GPU's output. The CPU's Cinebench R23 multicore score of 13593 and single-core score of 1919 indicate solid processing capability for a game like Lockdown Protocol, which is an FPS title that typically relies more on GPU rendering than CPU simulation.

Between resolutions, the gap between Low and Ultra presets widens as resolution increases. At 1080p, the difference between Low (159 FPS) and Ultra (74 FPS) is 85 FPS. At 1440p, the difference is 63 FPS (117 versus 54). At 4K, the difference shrinks to 40 FPS (75 versus 35). This narrowing suggests that at 4K, both CPU and GPU are working closer to their limits, and the preset gains become smaller relative to the overall frame rate.

The Verdict

The recorded data shows that this PC can run Lockdown Protocol, but the experience depends heavily on resolution and settings. At 1920x1080, all four presets clear the 60 FPS threshold. Low averages 159 FPS, Medium averages 113 FPS, High averages 99 FPS, and Ultra averages 74 FPS. This makes 1080p the most versatile resolution, where even the highest preset stays above the playable mark.

At 2560x1440, three presets remain playable. Low averages 117 FPS, Medium averages 83 FPS, and High averages 72 FPS. Ultra drops to 54 FPS average, which falls below the 60 FPS threshold. For 1440p gaming, High is the best option that maintains smooth performance, while Ultra requires a frame rate compromise.

At 3840x2160, only Low settings achieve playable performance, averaging 75 FPS. Medium averages 53 FPS, High averages 47 FPS, and Ultra averages 35 FPS. The verdict by resolution confirms that 4K is only viable at the lowest preset, and even then, the margin above 60 FPS is slim.

The system's overall rank of 2630 out of 3714 combos places it in the lower half of tested configurations, but the measured data shows that for Lockdown Protocol specifically, this combo delivers playable frame rates at 1080p and 1440p across most settings. The RTX 2060 SUPER's 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and 448.0 GB/s bandwidth are sufficient for this title at these resolutions, while the Ryzen 5 4600G provides enough processing power to avoid bottlenecking.
